There was very limited trading i'll cotton con-
tracts and generally unmportant market,
though the average tendency favored buyers.
August was forced down to SOC under free
offerings and new crop shaded 263 points, the
weak feeling being increased by easier advices
from Liverpool and the favorable construction
OF most weather reports in some sections of
Texas. However, rain is still greatly needed"

CHICAGO Aug. 13-There were indications on
Change to-day that the exciting interest
Gently shown in corn might be shortlived, and
that the attention of operators and the public
will again centre on wheat. The feature of
1iter fla fra % off in
and the upward tendency i'll wheat prices. while
the operators have been watching the clouds for
rain and chasing after high prices in corn. A
very important shipping movement i'll wheat
has been going on every day this week and has
shown light receipts at this point. The reports
also show a gradual and decided decrease in re-
ceipts of new wheat at st. Louis and other
points The shipments both by rail and Lake
have been sufficient to make quite a hole in the
amount held in stores here by the time of the
next weekly statement. Wheat, during most of
the session, was in good steady demand. Prices
Were advanced sc and closed sc higher than
yesteday. The range was within 1c. as follows:
September opened at 693sc, sold up to 1014c
early, sold down to the opening point about
1890 and about 1890 reached to 103sc, after
ward selling little under. October opened at
HE and after a few ups and downs touched
rec December sold between G415d615lc Corn
was quite active early in the session. but later
ruled rather quiet, with the feeling easier More
rain was reported in the corn belt, and it was
thought by many local operators that the in
crease in acreage over last year more than
makes up for the decrease on percentage of
yield and the country will have about Us much
corn as usual. The market opened ss0L5 I'M

influenced by expected larger receipts. and
closed 9Sc lower than yesterday. For oats a
comparatively easy market was quotabe Au-
gust delivery exhibited a slight Improvement.
while September and October did not change
materially from yesterday s closing. but ranged
a shade lower The speculative market ruled
easy Cash oats were fairly active early at
about yesterdays prices, but after n time the
demand sunsided and the market became quiet
The provision market was dull, and, one
operator put it. there was more talking than
business. Offerings were light and trading en-
tirely by local scaipers. Prices were confined
to narrow range and no changes occurred, ex-
cept in January pork. which broke l5c.
